Brown Bag Concert Series: Southern Grace

Take a Midweek Break with Brown Bag Concerts! Step away from the busyness and enjoy a Fall Fun Break each Wednesday in October at the Northeast Louisiana Arts Council’s free outdoor Brown Bag Concert Series. Join us at Palace Park (220 DeSiard Street, beside the old Palace Department Store) for live music from some of our region’s best musicians. Bring a picnic blanket or lawn chair, soak up the sunshine and cooler fall breezes, and let us treat you to a noontime mini-concert. Pack your own lunch or pick up a $6 box lunch (with tea) from Newk’s Eatery, available on site. And don’t miss the free cookies from Mulhearn’s - the perfect sweet treat! Concerts are free and open to the public thanks to the support of Mulhearn’s, Newk’s Eatery, ECHO Development, Paramount Healthcare Consultants of West Monroe, State Representative Michael Echols, and the City of Monroe. Who's playing? Southern Grace! Bringing the message through song, Southern Grace trio stops by to uplift us at the Series today. Rhonda Black, Donna McLaughlin, and Cathy Hutto make up the group and are well known area favorites. They are frequent performers at churches, theaters, and other local venues, honored for their talent by recognition such as NELA Music’s 2024 Worship Group of the Year! Come relax to their smooth harmonies and standout solos while you soak up the positive spirit they bring to the Series.
